As representações sociais de conjugalidade entre casais recasados

The present study aims to analyze social representations (SR) of conjugality among remarried couples. Two focus groups were held, one group with women and one group with men. All participants have at least one child from their first marriage and live at a considered middle or high-middle class neighborhood. The data were analyzed by discourse analyze. The results show conjugality SR is organized as a representational system, because the elements, that are articulated in order to form it, are considered social objects. The SR observed is organized differently by men and women. Also, it was observed in remarriage: 1) high complexity degree among family relations; 2) children, on parents point of view, deal with the new family dynamic nicely; 3) tendency of more equal conjugal relations; 4) men seem to need a conjugal partnership to organize their emotional, family and professional life.

Educação gerencial para atuação em ambientes de negócios sustentáveis: desafios e tendências de uma escola de negócios brasileira

This paper aims to describe and analyze, via a qualitative case study, how the pedagogic project from a management educational program enables the formation of managers to work at a sustainable business environmental. It was established a debate between the themes sustainable business and managerial education in the context of a Brazilian business school with international approach. It is considered that the business environment undergoes transformations that imply rethinking the relationship among man, organization and world; the economic paradigm; and how to produce and create value, not only for the present, but also for the future generations. In relation to the managerial role, it is assumed that there is an ongoing transition that goes beyond the typical administrative functions such as planning, organizing, leading and controlling, and encompasses the field of influence, of adaptation to different contexts, of unpredictability, of thinking beyond mental fences, and of interaction with paradoxes. Data was collected via triangulation, by the articulation of semi structured interviews with eleven professionals from the schools managerial and technical board, and documental analyses and nonsystematic observation. The evidences show the schools efforts to enable its pedagogic projects on a basis of assumptions of education oriented to sustainability, by arranging the experiential learning environment, characterized like a collaborative, collective and interdisciplinary, and by promoting education by reflexive, conscientious and autonomous persons, with a large view of the facts and responsibility for their actions. However, the business schools is involved in a paradoxical situation, by attending the corporative world demands that insist in managerial practices that are not sufficient for the business model of sustainable environmental, in view that the corporative universe continues to operate with an economical and short term utilitarian logic, which is contrary to long term sustainable logic.

Las políticas públicas de educación superior: la evaluación, la regulación y la supervisión de IES privadas en debate

This paper aims to highlight and discuss the private Higher Education School (HES) articulation around three aspects related to public policies for higher education: evaluation, regulation and supervision. The discussion is based on data collected and analyzed through five case studies. The results indicate the need to rethink public policies, especially in terms of the practical effects of government regulation on the HES and the definition of roles and functions of evaluation, regulation and supervision. These public policies interfere on the university management without evaluating their practical effectiveness. It makes the dynamics between HES and public policy take a formalistic logic, which causes damage to higher education and society.
